george w. bush didn't veto a single appropriations bill. and we saw not only -- because when you say this and start going down the list, some republicans get defensive. i like bush. i campaigned for him twice. i loved his tax cuts. love john roberts except for one decision. i love sam alito on every decision. george w. bush did some great things, but i will tell you what, he completely muddied the brand when it came to what is our core issue and what has always been our core issue, that we are a party of small government. and if you give the american people the choice between -- [applause] voting for a big government republican or a big government democrat, they'll vote for the big government democrat every single time. so what george w. bush did over eight years is destroy our brand, and as buckley said again of bush, you know, he's a conservative guy, but george w. bush is no conservative. >> joe, you really know how to work the crowd. i'm very impressed. >> no. >> we didn't talk about how taxes -- >> we should be the party of small gover

so when president george w. bush nominated michael sullivan, it looked like an easy path, but he couldn't get a vote in a republican-controlled senate. >> did i ever think for a moment my nomination would be held up by a senator from idaho as related to one firearm licensed dealer? no. i didn't. >> idaho senator larry craig along with two other republican, all staunch supporters of the nra, held up sullivan's nomination, but it wasn't the nra's hands at work. it was about one local idaho gun seller's dispute with the atf. even silver himself said the nra didn't derail him. >> i didn't get any sense at all that the industry was opposed to my nomination. nor even the nra. >> when president obama took office, the senate just sat on his first nominee, andrew traver, even conservatives like house republican darrell issa called for action. >> andrew traver, who i believe is the 2010, november 2010 dezinate, should in fact be given an up or down vote. should in fact be given an opportunity to be confirmed. >> but repub
